Niche: Acquainting With Yourself

Genesis 37:18-20- Now as soon as they saw him approaching from a distance, before he arrived they plotted together to kill him. 19 “Look!” they said. “Here comes the Dream Master! 20 Come on! Let’s kill him and toss him into one of the cisterns. Then we’ll report that some wild animal devoured him and wait to see what becomes of his dreams!”

1 kings3:10-12-It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this. 11 And God said to him, “Because you have asked this, and have not asked for yourself long life or riches or the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern what is right, 12 behold, I now do according to your word. Behold, I give you a wise and discerning mind



The revelation of God is a direct word of intimacy that God speaks to the kind with whom he has a profound attraction, and a unique degree of divine favor towards.

Every now and then God speaks a word of intimacy unto you then it’s indicative of the level by which God has found you favorable, lovable, and attractive.

It’s fundamentally ironic that every now and then God finds you favorable and lovable as much as attractive.

The environment around you is going to find a place to hate on you and malign you.

Joseph was favored and loved by both God and his father Jacob, and on the basis of God's favor his brothers hated him and always maligned him to the extent that they many times than not contemplated homicide towards Joseph.

Once God favors and loves you he expresses intimacy towards you and this intimacy comes in the form of revelation knowledge, trials, promises and the hope that only God can expose to a man.

God tries you only if he has found you favorable and lovable.

This is so because it’s only through trials and tribulations do we come to a place of truly being able to reflect his glory, victory and honor.

Our character in God always comes to being tested and tried as a testament that God is with you in love and in favor.

Does God find favorites among his children?

Yes God does find favorites among his children.

Hence how do you know that God had found you favorable and lovable?

When you begin spending more time with God as much as God spends with you then you have been favored and loved by God.

When you begin expressing intimate words as spoken unto you by God and your environment wants to shut you down and render you insignificant then you have been favored and loved by God.



When the people who are supposed to help you, love you because of the call of God upon your life but they rather start to hate on you, verify you then you have been favored and loved by God.

And backstab you and betray you to the extent of leaving you for dead yet you would not do the same to them then you have been favored and loved by God.

The Queen of Sheba traveled from Ethiopia to Jerusalem after hearing of not only King Solomon's wisdom, wealth but also after having heard about his beauty.

In the process of acquainting with yourself it’s vitally important to obtain wisdom.

Wisdom is a character it’s not what you say but what you do.

What you do is based on the decisions you make for your life.

In acquainting with yourself it’s also very crucial to appreciate that the coin has two sides /faces.
The two faces of a coin make the coin valuable.

Peace is the way of the wise while violence is the way of the unwise.
